[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archon export isn't working, will the migration tool not work as well?

[Prom, Christopher John]

Jason,

The migration tool does not need this export feature to do its work, it is independent of the database management tools in Archon proper.

I personally don't think the identifier should be included in the accession title in this way, but it's confusing because the identifier segments are separated by commas in that context.  In the Identifier column of a list of accessions, the segments are separated by dashes.
